Right Click Easy Folder Sharing in Thunar?
#1
Is there a way to implement right click network sharing

So I can share a linux folder to a windows PC simply by right clicking on the folder in Linux lite selecting to share it and having samba work

I have looked at the manual and I would prefer not to edit the file manually to add shares nor use nitroshare I was hoping for something built into the distro I can just enable this

Hi,

I have never had a need for "right click share" but I had the following book marked "right click sharing in Thunar/xfce" but it's quite old now...

This is no longer an issue for Thunar in XFCE4.8 however I am having difficulty locating any Jessie backport or repo for it other than Solydxk. It is something for the future here on LL I suppose. An old XFCE complaint.
